The official X (formerly Twitter) account for Pokémon TCG Pocket has released a letter describing the development plans for the game’s future. A new series will begin at the end of October, and more major changes include dual type Pokémon and changes to the battle mechanics.
The post is available here:
The letter describes a shift from a four week booster pack cycle to six weeks to give players more of a chance to collect all the cards. Greater focus will be put on missions, with new 1-star promo cards in event missions and immersive cards newly available through missions as well as booster packs. Community decks will be added to the game, to allow sharing of decks between players. New battle events with limited cards available to be used will be another way to earn rewards.
The latest expansion for Pokémon TCG Pocket is “Deluxe Pack: Mega”, which launched on September 30. The Pokémon website adds this description:
Deluxe Pack: Mega features many cards introduced in previous expansions, from Mega Rising to Ruler of the Skies, including reissues of every ♦♦♦♦ card from those expansions! These four-card packs are guaranteed to include one Pokémon ex, so this is a great opportunity to pull rare cards you might’ve missed out on. Plus, you’ll be able to snag fancy parallel foil cards or cards with awesome new artwork.
Pokémon TCG Pocket is available now for Android and iOS. Last year, Pokémon TCG Pocket took home the iPhone Game of the Year 2025 award and Google Play Best Game of 2025 award.
